“Homeland Security”—”Free State” (2nd Amendment) vs. Police State

Revitalization of “the Militia of the several States” enables average Americans to deal with a number of areas in which the Political Class imagines they have complete control and WE THE PEOPLE have no ability to intervene. But they are quite mistaken.

Constitutional Militia

The Constitution requires the organization of the vast amount of people in this country in State institutions called the “Militia”—”the Militia of the several States”. The ultimate purpose being, in the extreme case, to enforce the principles of the Declaration of Independence. And in all ordinary cases to oversee and enforce the principles of the U.S. Constitution with legal authority.

“Well Regulated Militia” Second Amendment

The Second Amendment is not just declaring a right, it is recognizing a duty. “A well regulated Militia” is a lawful collective undertaking of citizens, not an individual one. Militia are organized for both individual and community self-defense. The Constitution itself sanctions the Militia as “necessary to the security of a free State”. (2nd Amendment)

State Issued Debit Card: Transact in Actual Silver and Gold

“The security of a free State” (2nd Amendment) includes WE THE PEOPLE’s control over “Money”, constitutionally limiting the States to silver and gold in all governmental fiscal transactions. Real silver and gold can be used for everyday purchases with State Issued EGC Debit Cards. States and her citizens can walk away from the collapsing Federal Reserve System.

Misconstrued Role of Congress: Acts of Congress Not Necessarily Binding

Whether an action taken by such individuals is entitled to be denoted an action “of Congress” depends, not upon its mere occurrence in the Capitol, but upon its strict congruence with the Constitution, because “Congress” enjoys no authority—indeed, has no legal existence—outside of, let alone contrary to, the Constitution.

“Original Intent” Rule of Construction

At the time the Constitution was written the doctrine of “original Intent” was already hundreds of years old. When “WE THE PEOPLE *** ordain[ed] and establish[ed] this Constitution” there was no other rule of construction known to us but “original intent”.

Revitalizing “the Militia of the several States”

Revitalization of “the Militia of the several States” depends on local self-reliance. To begin the process of returning America to her constitutional fundamentals, patriots do not need to recruit most Americans most everywhere, but only enough Americans somewhere to prove the theory, establish the practice, and above all set a successful example.

Bill of Rights

Were close attention paid to what the original Constitution actually provided, the Second Amendment would be recognized as something of a redundancy. The Second Amendment is one of the ten “further declaratory and restrictive clauses” that, compiled in the Bill of Rights, were “added” to the original Constitution “in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its [then existing] powers”.

Constitutional “Homeland Security”: Militia Structure

Constitutional “homeland security” is “A well regulated Militia” based upon “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms” (2nd Amendment). Militia Structures are State institutions of self-government sanctioned by the Constitution. Properly organized as Miltia, THE PEOPLE can provide themselves with every type of security imaginable.

Misconstrued Role of the Supreme Court as the Ultimate Interpreter of the Constitution

“In the ordinary use of language it will hardly be contended that the decisions of Courts constitute laws. They are, at most, only evidence of what the laws are; and are not of themselves laws. They are often re-examined, reversed, and qualified by the Courts themselves, whenever they are found to be either defective, or ill-founded, or otherwise incorrect.”

Declaration of Independence

Neither the Constitution nor least of all the principles it embodies arose spontaneously out of nothing. That source and substance must be found in the Declaration of Independence. Even the Supreme Court has recognized this.

“Arms” and the 2nd Amendment

“The right of the people to keep and bear Arms” must conduce at least to the maintenance of “a well regulated Militia”. the people must possess “Arms” suited, not simply for individual self-defense, let alone for so-called “sporting purposes”, but preëminently for the serious work of community self-preservation against every enemy, domestic as well as foreign.

“Militia”: Separate and Distinct From the Regular Armed Forces

For good reason, the Constitution makes sharp distinctions among ‘the Militia of the several States’, and the regular Armed Forces—”Armies”, “a Navy”, and “Troops or Ships of War”. Americans can disregard or blur these distinctions only at their own peril.

States Enjoy the Sovereignty to Reinstitute Constitutional “Money”—Silver and Gold

The Constitution explicitly prohibits the States from using anything but silver and gold in all governmental fiscal transactions. States are constitutionally prohibited from coining “Money”. However, a State may adopt silver and gold coinage which the State itself did not coin.

“Right of Redemption” of Paper “Money”

The monetary conjurers’ trick has been, slowly, steadily, and stealthily, to reverse this understanding in the public’s mind. That is, to make the substitute pass for the real thing, and then remove the real thing from the operation.

“Executive Power”

WE THE PEOPLE set out to define, by those definitions to limit and by those limitations especially to control “executive power” as much as practicable, so that such usurpation and tyranny that occurred under King George III would never again recur.

Militia: State Government Institutions

Throughout America in the pre-constitutional era existed “well regulated Militia”—the products of statutes which Americans had believed were so effective in achieving their ends that they had enacted them and reënacted them and reënacted them yet again, in form and substance, decade after decade and generation after generation.

National Guard: Not a Militia

The National Guard is neither “a well regulated Militia”, as the Second Amendment uses that term; nor one or part of “the Militia of the several States”, as the original Constitution uses that term; nor any form of “militia” whatsoever. The National Guard (along with its naval component, the so-called Naval Militia) began only in 1903; and the National Guard started to assume most of its present form only in several statutes enacted from 1908 to 1916.

Federal Reserve System

The Federal Reserve System is an unconstitutional cartel structure that controls the money supply of the United States. In 1903, THE PEOPLE’S “representatives” coupled the U.S. Treasury with a banking cartel enabling Congress and the banks the unlimited power to tax. loot, and debase the currency infinitely. To this day, with the blessings of Congress, the Federal Reserve continues to operate with impunity.

“General Government” vs. “Federal Government”

The term “General Government” refers solely to the new government the Constitution created, consisting of Congress, the President, and the Supreme Court, as distinct from “the federal government” or “the federal system”, which consists of the General Government, the States, and WE THE PEOPLE. This is a clarifying usage common among the Founding Fathers.

“Living” Constitution

The living Constitution” amounts to a collection of legal fictions which rogue public officials concoct as they go along.” The “living” Constitution is not “based upon the actual words and phrases of the original Constitution or the Bill of Rights, except to the extent that officials coöpt the bare verbiage as empty vessels into which they then pour theretofore unheard-of meanings.

“War on Terror”

The political value of “the war on terrorism” is precisely that, in the nature of things, it will never end. And as long as it drags on, a rationalization will subsist for rogue public officials to ignore the Constitution with respect to any and every American to whom they can attach some label which links him, howsoever tenuously, to “terrorism”.

Constitutional “Dollar”

By 1704, the “dollar” or “pieces of eight” had in fact become the unit of account of the American Colonies. On May 22, 1776, the Continental Congress adopted the “dollar” as the nation’s standard of value, which the Constitution later recognized. On 6 July 1785, Congress unanimously “Resolved, That the money unit of the United States be one ‘dollar.’ The Mint Act of 1792 permanently fixed the value of the U.S. monetary unit, the “dollar”, at 371 1/4 grains of fine silver.

CHSA: Key to Revitalizing the Militia

The ultimate goal of the Citizens’ Homeland Security Association is to transition into a permanent constitutional Militia Structure in that State. As a State government institution the Militia can exercise their legal authority everyday of the year as well as enforce their immunity from any unconstitutional legislation enacted by Congress.

The Two Great Powers of Constitutional Self-Government

The Power of the Purse and The Power of the Sword

Power of

The Purse

Any State can reinstitute constitutional “Money”—silver and gold with no consent from Congress necessary. Any State can, and is constitutionally required to, walk away from a depreciating Federal Reserve System.
